The hundreds of crores homebuyers have invested in Noida are safe. The Centre's draft of the redrawn eco-sensitive zone around the Okhla bird sanctuary doesn't affect any realty project in the area, a highly placed official in the UP government said

Buyers of about 30,000 completed flats in Noida, falling within the 10-km radius of the Okhla Bird Sanctuary, might have to wait for another two years before their houses can be safe from further environmental litigation.

DELHI: In a joint effort involving Noida Authority and Noida Police, a survey was conducted to identify realty projects being developed within a 10 kilometer radius of the Okhla Bird Sanctuary. The team found that around 40 developers were carrying on construction without any environmental clearance. The National Green Tribunal, in its August 14 order, had ordered for such surveys.
